Aunt Vicky was one of my first bosses when I worked my first job at the Lutheran Home. She worked hard and I don’t recall ever seeing her slacking. After my uncle Dick suffered a stroke, she took care of his needs until he moved to Heaven. I heard she was always busy volunteering her time to help the less fortunate. My aunt Vicky is a great example of a life well lived serving Jesus by serving others. She will be missed. If we imitate Christ like she did with her life, someday we will share the experience of eternal life that she is now surely enjoying in Heaven.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
